Introducing: Iron Reagan

IRON REAGAN's Relapse debut The Tyranny Of Will is a 24 song wrecking ball of hardcore- punk/thrash fury. The album was recorded with guitarist Phil Hall at Blaze of Torment Studios in Richmond, VA and self-produced plus it was mixed by Converge's Kurt Ballou. The album will be released September 16th in North America, Sept 15th in the UK/Europe/World and on Sept 12th in Germany/Benelux/World. The cover art was done by Alexis Maybree AKA NevaSafe.

Singer Tony Foresta on Miserable Failure: "Miserable Failure" is a Summer Jam unlike the world has ever seen. Oozing sensuality riff after riff, this song will take you into a hard rock crossover vortex of horniness, lust and confusion. You might need ear condoms for this one. I hate writing quotes for songs."

Starting today The Tyranny of Will is available for pre-order in multiple configurations and formats. The album will be issued in the following formats: CD, LP (Black Std Gram), LP (Red Std Gram), LP (Red and Black Merge Std Gram) mailorder exclusive, CD - Deluxe version (Bonus track #25 The Sentence is Death + 24-page booklet) and on good ol’ cassette tape.

The album can pre-ordered from Relapse Records here and from Bandcamp here.

Fronted by the venomously lyrical Tony Foresta (Municipal Waste), on paper IRON REAGAN is a Richmond, Virginia super group (the band also features Phil Hall of Municipal Waste, Cannabis Corpse, etc. as well as Ryan Parrish formerly of Darkest Hour together with members of Mammoth Grinder).

In practice IRON REAGAN are WAY more than just a super group project. They have toured the world several times over leveling audiences with their furious live show. IRON REAGAN is a fully formed raging band that have delivered one of the heaviest hardcore records of the year that is guaranteed to be on the top of both metalheads' and punk rockers' year end lists.

The band kicks off a short run of dates in the US supporting Eyehategod today, these run through July 15th in Brooklyn, NY. The band has a huge hometown show scheduled for July 23rd and will be taking part in this year's GWAR-B-Q and Fun Fun Fun Fest.
